How to get special manufacturer by id?

[vahidafshari]

Hello

How can I show details of special manufactur (id=336) in product.tpl?

[vekia]

in product controller to smarty array you have to add variable with manufacturer object:

 

$mymanufacturer = new Manufacturer(336);

 

then add it to smarty array.

$this->context->smarty->assign('mymanufacturer',$mymanufacturer);

 

 

then in product.tpl file you can use {$mymanufacturer} variable (remember that this is object)

Tnx vekia but i couldn't use it!

I created a ProducController.php in overwrite/controller/front and I  put below lines

<?php

class ProductControllerCore extends FrontController

{

$mymanufacturer = new Manufacturer(336);

$this->context->smarty->assign('mymanufacturer',$mymanufacturer);

}

?>

and use {$mymanufacturer} in product.tpl! it doesn't work

code you used will not work.

you have to use code in init() function, or in initcontent() function
